If your child attends full time they will need to bring a packed lunch or they may have a school dinner at a cost of £2.32 per day £11.60 per week payable online using School Grid.

We are flexible to when you want to book your sessions so that it fits in with your other commitments / childcare needs. For example, you may wish for your child to attend 3 mornings and 2 full days or 2 and half days a week etc.  Once your days have been agreed you will need to give 4 weeks’ notice in writing if you wish to change the days your child attends. Preferences will be given to those parents who require a full time place.  We will also be able to offer Breakfast and After School Club Care if you require it.          

We know that before your child starts in our Nursery they will have had a wide range of different experiences. They will have learnt a great deal from their families and will have developed a variety of interests and skills.

At Elton Primary we aim to develop your child’s confidence and build upon what they have learnt from you. Working with you and your family ensures that your child enjoys a happy and educationally rewarding time at our Nursery.
